Factors influencing colour production from sugar medium used for rapid approximation of bacterial counts in fishery products
(Society of Fisheries Technologists(India),Cochin, 1965) Mathen, C.; Choudhury, D.R.
Results of the studies carried out to elucidate the factors influencing colour production from the sugar medium used for the rapid approximation of bacterial counts in fishery products are reported. The effect of particle size, trace elements, salt soluble protein and non-protein fractions, rate of mulipication of bacteria, in the medium, surface bacteria and the rate of colour production by individual strains of bacteria were studied. It is observed that the best results are obtained when a sea-water homogenate is used.
